How to make multiple parallel approval - when some approves, will send the approval to CEO

Hi, I would like to know what's the best way to create a parallel approval flow in Power Automate (with SharePoint Online) for 6 staffs to support (option is Support / Do Not Support).
 
When 3 of them supports, it will then send an approval notification to CEO for his final approval (option is Approve / Reject).
And when any one of the 6 staffs select 'Do Not Support', the entire workflow ends, with an email sending out to all that the approval was not supported/rejected.
 
Thank you in advance.

    I think you're looking to do the old wait for a percentage of responses approval action that could be done with SharePoint 2013 flows. I have never had occasion to use that method, but I have read how you can accomplish this with Power Automate. Check this article: About365 - Power Automate Approvals: Majority / percentual approval
     
    Since I have never needed this, I have not attempted what is outlined.
